DWTS: Bolton vs. Bruno

“Last night, I think Bruno was inappropriate and disrespectful,” he said backstage, just a few moments before his elimination. “Other than that, it was a phenomenal, phenomenal experience up until now.

WOW. Just WOW WOW WOW.

Bolton was referring to judge Bruno Tonioli’s comment that the singer’s jive was “the worst” in 11 seasons. It earned a total of 12 points. Ouch.

Harsh on both sides, yes. But Bolton is, like it or not, there to be judged. (Er, was.) And he apparently didn’t like it too much.

Bolton was pretty bad but I agree Bruno was rather harsh…I don’t think I’ve ever seen a 3 on the show before. He was being a total cranky pants on Monday night – very Len-ish and out of character for him

Bolten’s critisim was fair. He is the worst dancer ever to appear on the show. He should have gotten an assesmant of his abilties or lack of before he went on the show. He should not have been a contestant.

To all the celebs who live in a bubble with an entourage of sycophants to kiss up to them and only say nice things about them, don’t appear on a judged reality TV show, where wken you suck,the judges will tell you you suck. Your tender feelings might get hurt.

Bruno was a bit harsh but is a judge whose opinion about dancing and dancers is always interesting. These judges are superb ballroom dancers and know their art form. (I’m still aggravated at what happened to poor Poppy on AGT.)

I think Carrie calling out “The Situation” for being a little pidgeon toed was the ugliest thing I’ve ever seen. When did it become okay to point out what might be considered a minor birth defect? Carrie and Bruno give props to the guys they want to bang. Obviously Bolton and Sitch don’t fall into either of those rather wide categories. Shame on Carrie’s hypocrisy, isn’t the point of DWTS to bring on different types, with different ages, body types and levels of experience. I’d like to see Mike S. shove his size 11 pidgeion toed boot down her venomous big mouth. That was really unforgivable, unprofessional and creepy. She became a grenade right before America’s eyes.

Uh, anyone who says Michael Bolton was the worst contestant ever has clearly never watched a previous season. Steve Wozniak (who was adorable but terrible)? Buzz Aldrin (noble and sweet, but terrible)? KATE GOSSELIN (or whatever the hell her name is- there was nothing redeeming about her personality OR her dancing)? Don’t get me started. MB was bad, but there’s a difference between tactful, honest criticism and mean spiritedness. Bruno was just being mean.
